Situated in a wonderful Baglan district
of Nashik at the border of Maharashtra and Gujrat, Salher
takes a pride of the highest fort in Maharashtra and the second
highest peak (after Kalasubai). The Dholbari range in which Salher
is situated and Selbari range is the northernmost part of the
Sahyadri.

Precaution

1. Water could be a big problem
until you reach the top, especially in the summer when temperature
reaches at its high level. So, have your bottles full of water from
base village itself. Once you reach the top, a small water cistern
(not the big water tank as shown in the snap) provides you potable
water.

2. Don't drink water from the big water tank (see snap). It's
meant for the cows and buffalos.

3. Flies could be troublesome at times. So just be
careful.

Sight Seeing

1. Salher has a great, rocky staircase and it's a real joy to
watch it from Salota. Having walked the staircase, the big darwaja comes in front. Opposite to the darwaja is a rock carved
script.

2. Parashuram mandir is situated on a hillock
(about 30 min. from cave). It's the highest point of the fort.
